Industry-Leading Technology
Your most promising prospective buyer is often someone who’s looking near you. We prominently present your home on Nextdoor, the neighborhood-centric social media platform. It’s where people gather for community and sharing. When they see your home is for sale, they can be the trusted neighbor who sends it to friends and family looking to move to the area.
Hosting the NextHome way includes Spacio, the digital platform that invites guests to sign in – and allows us to analyze relevant information on them and form educated insights on the audiences we’re reaching, how showings are performing, and determining next steps. From here we can view key metrics that allow us to follow up with the most interested parties to keep your home front and center with visitors well after they leave the open house.
Our branded smartphone app, Mobile Connect, assures that your home is in the car with buyers, when they need it. Our yard signs feature a proprietary Mobile Connect rider that contains drive-by absorbed instructions for buyers to find out more about your home, when they’re actively and visually engaged in real time.
We’ve worked hard on implementing cutting-edge technology to keep paperwork, hassles, and delays out of your hands. Our services optimize mobile and paperless options that meet you on your schedule during the selling process. Our technology suite assures you an advantage in speed, efficiency, and accuracy, to a turnaround time that’s 25% faster than paper documents. Proven and paperless, DocuSign eSignature and Rooms are our automated signature and agreement technologies that allow us to create, sign, and complete documents in minutes. Your data is secure, and you have complete visibility and control of the entire process.
Unparalleled Marketing
We are the only mid-MO brokerage using Studeo, the world’s first interactive storytelling platform for real estate. We engage a full range of best-in-class digital and interactive tools to create an all-in-one narrative that tells the most enticing story of your home. This is how we believe technology is best deployed: to maximize human efficiency, attraction, connection, and ultimately, the most effective factors in selling your home.
Your heart moves in a different way when you see a mascot versus a logo. Enter Luke. He is a fundamental part of the NextHome brand identity, adding emotion and pure marketing genius to the real estate experience. Though Luke stands guard over our one-of-a-kind yard signs, he has also become somewhat of a social media sensation, favorited and liked, sent and shared, leading scavenger hunts (and house hunts) by commanding cuteness and attention. This is a pup with the power to lead people to their next home.
NextHome invested in an industry-leading design program by the world’s largest independent design firm, Pentagram. The result is a striking visual identity and unparalleled print collateral. With online advertising becoming over-saturated, our print marketing creates a unique, defined and targeted message.
The difference an expert can make is remarkable in transforming the comfortable, relaxing space so very much yours into a more formal, more neutral show environment that attracts a wide range of buyers and stands apart from the competition. Staged homes, in any market, sell faster and for more money.
